Urban All-Round Master

Chapter 1718: Chapter 1752: Damn! Lady, Don’t Talk Nonsense

This made the atmosphere between Nangong Bing and Lin Zifeng quite awkward as soon as they sat down.

The pregnant women and their families around looked at them with strange eyes. Nangong Bing remained calm as if nothing had happened, but Lin Zifeng felt quite uneasy.

”Have you noticed that these people are giving us weird looks?” Lin Zifeng said quietly through clenched teeth, maintaining his composure.

”What does it matter? Maybe they’ve already mistaken us for being mistresses. Ignore them, as long as you don’t feel guilty inside, it doesn’t matter.” Nangong Bing remained still, not even bothering to turn her head.

”Alright.” Helplessly, Lin Zifeng pretended nothing was amiss, letting those busybodies continue watching.

Soon, a nurse came out, calling the number in Nangong Bing’s hand.

Initially, Lin Zifeng intended to accompany her inside, but for such checks, it’s better to step back... so he stayed seated, waiting.

”Make sure you don’t leave.” As she walked away, Nangong Bing glanced back at Lin Zifeng.

”Don’t worry, I’ll take responsibility no matter what happens.”

”Scritch Scritch Scritch...”

As soon as these simple, sincere words left his mouth, almost all the pregnant women and their families turned their heads to him, their eyes filled with disdain, contempt, and malice.

It made Lin Zifeng feel like a notorious villain.

”Hey brother, there’s something Auntie wouldn’t tell you, but as someone who’s been through this, I have to speak up.

Since you’ve already acted, you should take the responsibility a man should bear. No matter how tough life gets, you’ve got to grit your teeth and make it through.”

At this moment, Lin Zifeng felt the need for a smoke and planned to step outside to have one when an overly meddlesome aunt, who fancied herself as Lei Feng, sat beside him.

This left Lin Zifeng completely baffled, not understanding what she meant.

”Hey, Aunt, what are you talking about?” Lin Zifeng hadn’t come to his senses and didn’t know what this aunt was saying.

The aunt chuckled knowingly, rolling her eyes at Lin Zifeng with an understanding look.

Patting his hand, she smiled, ”Young man, I know you don’t want these things mentioned, but Auntie really doesn’t like seeing this happen. Although it’s a bit late now, at least my words should have some impact on you. As someone who’s been through this, I hope my words haven’t upset you.”

The aunt spoke vividly, as if passing down all her life’s experiences, yet she didn’t know Lin Zifeng was thoroughly perplexed.

”Aunt, can we make sure things are clear before talking?”

”Why, aren’t they clear enough?” The aunt slapped her leg and stood up.

She looked agitated.

”...”

Lin Zifeng was speechless.

”Young man, you brought her here for an abortion, and while this is none of my business and I can’t interfere, I have to tell you as someone who’s been through this. Once there’s a first time, there’s a second. Do you know how much harm an abortion causes to a woman, how much it mentally burdens her for life?”

...

”Damn it! Aunt, what nonsense are you spouting?” Lin Zifeng, feeling like a monkey bitten on the rear, suddenly stood up straight, looking around as the pregnant women’s glances fell upon him.

”Aunt, you really shouldn’t be spouting nonsense!”

”Nonsense? I’m not spouting nonsense. I’m speaking the truth. Someone who’s been through this wouldn’t lie to you.”

The aunt was anxious too.

”But as someone who’s been through this, has anyone ever told you that you should keep your voice down in front of so many people?” That moment, Lin Zifeng really wanted to smack the aunt.

Quickly, he scurried away from the aunt towards the exit.

Damn it, this aunt is unbelievably meddlesome.

After Lin Zifeng left the waiting room, Nangong Bing also emerged from the examination room, just as the aunt finished talking with Lin Zifeng. Seeing Nangong Bing, the aunt approached.

”Hello, is there something you need?” Nangong Bing looked at her, not recognizing her, then scanned the other people present, realizing many were watching her with interest, making her uncomfortable.

”Young lady, I don’t know how to say this, but as someone who’s been through this, I must tell you, you’re still young, sometimes you must have your own self-discipline, don’t ruin yourself,” the aunt said with a mournful face, shook her head, and walked away.

”I...”

Nangong Bing was about to say something when the aunt left, leaving her baffled, not understanding what she meant.

After they left the waiting room, the people inside started discussing.

”Why are you here? I was looking everywhere for you.”

Leaning against the wall, Lin Zifeng squinted as he smoked idly. This annoyed Nangong Bing, who looked at him with ill intent.

”Nothing, just a craving for a cigarette. Are you finished with the checkup?”

”No, still need an ultrasound. Checking on the baby’s development.” Nangong Bing took two steps forward, noticed Lin Zifeng hadn’t followed, halted her steps, and turned back angrily, ”Hey, what are you doing standing there? Hurry up and come along for the ultrasound.”

”Oh!”

Lin Zifeng put out the cigarette by stepping on it.

Accompanying her into the ultrasound room, things were just as Madam said earlier this morning.

Seven or eight pregnant women recognized her, though they didn’t know her name. Occasionally, these women came for checkups and happened to see her again today.

This was Nangong Bing’s misfortune, and also the misfortune of these pregnant women today.

”Hey! You came early today too?”

In the waiting room, a poised woman in maternity wear, supported by her husband, approached. Seeing Nangong Bing wasn’t alone today, her eyes sharpened, her gaze falling on Lin Zifeng, who immediately returned her a polite smile.

”Yes,” Nangong Bing nodded coldly in reply, intending not to get caught up with the woman.

”Hey! Is he your husband?” Meanwhile, another stylish woman arrived, unclear if she was pregnant.

These women are quick to make acquaintance, socially adept, barring Nangong Bing who didn’t fit into their so-called circle of friends.

Therefore, their fondness for Nangong Bing decreased, with the intention of putting her down.

”Whether he’s my husband, do I need to prove it to any of you?” Nangong Bing replied coldly, her words sharp, giving face to no one.

”Who knows if he’s your husband or not? These days, anyone can just find someone and call them a husband, it happens a lot.” said the pregnant woman.

(The weather’s too hot, getting weaker, damn it, always feeling sleepy.)
